Falls
from height are one of the most common forms of accident at work,
comprising nearly 20% of all workplace injuries. Every year, falls
result in around 5000 cases of major injury and about 80 fatalities,
usually from heights above two metres.

The construction industry alone accounts for half of these incidents.

It is estimated that the annual cost to society of accidents caused
by falls is in the region of more than 300 million pounds, primarily
in terms of personal suffering, but also including medical costs,
costs to employers, lost output and damage to equipment.

Our
lifeline system is unique in that it is able to withstand the imposed
load of a fall arrest, but is also designed to accommodate the workers
task by minimising hindrance to working procedure and movement.
It is available in a range of colours to integrate with the working
environment.
